Earlier this week Practice Direction 10 of 2024 was amended to allow DNA cases that were languishing in the Toowoomba, Gatton, Warwick, Southport & Coolangatta Magistrates Courts to be referred to the DNA Affected Case Callover operating in Brisbane. This means that cases that had stalled in those jurisdictions following the 2022 and 2023 DNA inquiries are now able to progress through the criminal justice system towards resolution. The amendments follow written submissions from Behlau Murakami Grant and leading DNA academics Lynne Weathered and Dr Janet Chaseling to the Crisafulli Government's DNA review team.
